A Divine Interruption!

-
It is a little long, but it is a powerful word. I had saved a post on Facebook about divine interruptions. It was long, so I was going to go back and read it later. It came up in my newsfeed Friday when I woke up sick, and I just didn't want to read it then. But God directed me back to it yesterday, and as I got still and listened to Him; His words came to me in a special way.

I HEARD THE LORD SAY, "I AM INTERRUPTING, BUT EMBRACE THIS DIVINE INTERRUPTION, FOR THERE YOU WILL FIND A NEW MOVE OF MY HOLY SPIRIT. AGAIN, THIS BATTLE WITH SICKNESS WILL END MY CHILD, AND AN EVEN GREATER ANOINTING WILL REST UPON YOU THROUGH MY HOLY SPIRIT", SAYS GOD.

The Lord reminded me that He is fighting the enemy on my behalf, so to be still and let Him fight for me. I need not fight a fight, I was never intended to fight. An interruption is a hindering or stopping of something. Having to miss church is an interruption for me. But God has a plan and purpose behind this sickness. He says, "this is Me, with a divine interruption to change your course for a 'new move of the Holy Spirit'. Embrace this divine interruption", says God.

Special favor, blessings, and a move of the Holy Spirit are on the way; He spoke this to me. The Lord showed me that in this 'divine interruption', He is bringing new gifts to the surface to operate in my life and in the life of our church, for His glory and purpose. I'm 'paused' right now in this interruption, but the Lord spoke to me that He is releasing new moves of the Holy Spirit to bring about change of hearts and lives. It's already on the way.

I submitted and surrendered everything to Him last night; my sickness and my frustrations. In embracing this divine interruption now, God has me praying over my life and our church in a special way, while I am still. He has truly taught me what I need to pray for our church, and how I need to continue praying and trusting Him. He is showing me that there are going to be mighty demonstrations of His power, provision, and positioning for this new season in my life and the life of our church... not to bring about feeling good or to stir up emotions... but to truly save, heal, deliver and set people free. I'm not focused on the frustrations now. I'm only focused on God and what He will do, and how He will move and change hearts and lives, through a refreshing and new move of the Holy Spirit.

I have much peace and expectation and excitement in my heart. And, I know I've received deliverance during this time from those tormenting dreams that started two months ago. God did a work in me with this. I haven't had those dreams in two nights. Praise God.

God took me to His word about interruptions. Time and again throughout the Bible, we see of where God interrupts what a person was doing and asked them to adjust to something different. In every case, once the adjustment was made, God accomplished His purpose through them. Noah had to stop and adjust his life purpose from what he was doing to what God wanted. God called on him to build an ark, and we know how that played out. Abram had to uproot his entire family and move from Ur to establish a new nation in Canaan. Today, we call this modern day Israel. Moses had to give up his comfortable life of herding sheep in the desert to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. The first disciples of Jesus dropped their fishing nets in order to adjust to the invitation to follow Jesus. Saul, who later became Paul, experienced his transformation when God interrupted him as he traveled toward another city to persecute Christians. When God interrupts, it often leads to enormous changes and adjustments in your life for the good of God. His purpose and glory will manifest itself through these divine interruptions.


Proverbs 19:21 "Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails."


Isaiah 43:19 “Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it?"

Reconnect and Reset!

8.21.2022 - 8.24.2022 • A "reconnect and reset trip" to the Great Smoky Mountains with my dear friend of 10 years, Susan. We haven't got to visit and see each other in a long while. We talk over the phone some. In 2012, we met while attending the same church, and connected instantly. We've held each other up in prayer, encouraged each other in the Lord, cried and laughed together, and worshipped together, as sisters in Christ should. We belly laughed so much on our vacation until we were hurting and seeing stars. We were planning to rest more, but we decided to pack in the fun while the Lord gave us the opportunity to do so together and memories sure were made. We prayed for God to pave the way and He did. He gave us favor with the traffic, favor with my vehicle, favor in keeping us safe from harm (we know how dangerous it can be for two women to travel alone, but with God you are never alone), favor with His band of Holy Angels all around us, ...

Why A Blog Titled: "Becoming Better Women"?

Back around the last week of October 2017, I had a dream about the acronym "BBW" standing for something profound! I was standing in a room full of women, some I knew and some I had never seen before in my life and I looked down at a piece of paper and it said in bold cursive writing, BBW =  "Becoming Better Women" . There were women of all shapes and sizes in this room, different ages and races, showing different emotions. Nothing was said in the dream but when I woke up I didn't forget about it. In fact, a couple of days later I text myself those three words, becoming better women. Not yet knowing what to do with it, what it meant exactly, but feeling very strongly the Lord gave it to me for a reason! I had no idea that a week later, after having this dream, I would end up in the hospital for what seemed to be the longest and most challenging 7 days of my life! Throughout my time in the hospital, "Becoming Better Women" would go through my mind. Aroun...

We Prepare for Battle in Prayer!

-
Read Ephesians 6:10-18 The armor of God is vital to Christian belivers when it comes to our prayer life, overcoming spiritual warfare, and overcoming a lukewarm lifestyle. We can learn to become crucified in Christ so that the flesh part of us can resist the enemy's lies and temptations to sin. We can become transformed into a new person in Christ and no longer be enslaved to our old habits and sinful nature and attitude. We have daily choices to live accordingly to God's righteous standards and deny sin. We we choose God's desires for our life instead of sins, we crucify our flesh. Sin is only pleasurable for a season, and then it will turn on you like an unknown allergic reaction to a favorite food you ate. We prepare for battle when we suit up daily with the armor of God.  ---------- ARMOR of God and its PURPOSE: Belt of Truth - backbone of the word  Breastplate of Righteousness - protects is from satan's fiery darts, lies, temptation Feet Preparation of the Gospel o...
